HVAC for Valley Heat and Mountain Cold
Lumby's Monashee foothill location creates a specific HVAC challenge. The valley traps summer heat on 35°C+ days that build through July and August with less breeze relief than lakeside communities get. Winters are among the coldest in the North Okanagan, with Creighton and Trinity Valley properties regularly seeing -25 and colder. Most rural homes run propane furnaces, and many older properties lack ductwork entirely. The HVAC system needs to handle both extremes honestly.
Stevenson Mechanical installs and services HVAC across Lumby, Creighton Valley, Trinity Valley, and Mabel Lake Road with central AC where ducts exist, ductless mini-splits for farmhouses and cabins that don't, cold-climate heat pumps with proper propane furnace backup, and ductwork repair. Sized against real Lumby climate data, not Kelowna's milder numbers or generic provincial templates.
